How the exam will ask it
ಪ್ರಿಲಿಮ್ಸ್
- PRAHAAR is described as India's first national counter-terrorism policy and strategy, unveiled by the Union Home Minister.
- The policy addresses both terrorism and radicalisation, providing a single framework for agencies.
- Public order and police are State subjects, so a national framework depends on coordination between the Centre and States.
ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS-III Internal Security: terrorism has long been tackled through separate laws and agency-specific responses, and PRAHAAR offers a single national policy and strategy covering terrorism and radicalisation. The implication is better inter-agency coordination, though Centre-State roles in policing remain a challenge. The way forward lies in clear coordination mechanisms, counter-radicalisation outreach and safeguards for civil liberties.

- ಆದಾಯ ಮತ್ತು ಪಾವತಿಗಳ ನಡುವಿನ ತಾತ್ಕಾಲಿಕ ಅಸಮತೋಲನ
- ಮೂಲಸೌಕರ್ಯದ ಮೇಲಿನ ದೀರ್ಘಾವಧಿ ಬಂಡವಾಳ ವೆಚ್ಚ
- ಹಲವು ವರ್ಷಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಪಾವತಿಸಬೇಕಾದ ಮಾರುಕಟ್ಟೆ ಸಾಲಗಳ ಮರುಪಾವತಿ
- ನಷ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಗಳ ಮರುಬಂಡವಾಳೀಕರಣ
ಉತ್ತರ ನೋಡಿ
ಉತ್ತರ: A — ಸರಿ: ಆದಾಯ ಮತ್ತು ಪಾವತಿಗಳ ನಡುವಿನ ತಾತ್ಕಾಲಿಕ ಅಸಮತೋಲನ — WMA ಒಂದು ಅಲ್ಪಾವಧಿ ಸೌಲಭ್ಯ. • ದೀರ್ಘಾವಧಿ ಬಂಡವಾಳ ವೆಚ್ಚ — ತಪ್ಪು: ಇದಕ್ಕೆ ಮಾರುಕಟ್ಟೆ ಸಾಲ ಬಳಸಲಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. • ಮಾರುಕಟ್ಟೆ ಸಾಲಗಳ ಮರುಪಾವತಿ — ತಪ್ಪು: ಇದು WMA ಉದ್ದೇಶವಲ್ಲ. • ರಾಜ್ಯ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಗಳ ಮರುಬಂಡವಾಳೀಕರಣ — ತಪ್ಪು: ಇದು ಬಜೆಟ್ ನಿರ್ಧಾರ.
